A neonate who received vitamin K (VK) supplementation then developed severe late-onset bleeding with abnormal prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastine time. The bleeding was corrected after intravenous VK. Molecular analysis of the gamma-glutamylcarboxylase gene revealed a heterozygous single nucleotide polymorphism, which decreases carboxylase activity and induces VK-dependent coagulation deficiency.
